Application
Instructions
Surface Preparation: Surface must be free from grease and other residues,
dry, smooth and structurally sound. Check surfaces for paint bonding, loose
wallcoverings, damaged wall- board or plaster. Repair all unsound surfaces.
Priming of bare drywall is not required with fabric-backed wallcoverings.
Before proceeding with any unusual conditions, consult your adhesive or
wallcovering supplier.
Dilution: May be diluted with up to one pint of clean water per gallon.
DO NOT OVER DILUTE.
Application Method: Use only when the room temperature is above 50°F.
Apply an even coat of adhesive with a pasting machine or roller. Avoid
contact with the surface of embossed, textured or delicate wallcoverings.
Book wallcovering according to the wallcovering manufacturer’s instructions.
Clean-Up: Before the adhesive dries, remove any excess with clean water.
Additional effort may be required if the adhesive is allowed to contact the
surface of embossed or textured vinyls.
